Mr. Lawson Tait and Mr. Fulford: The speech of Mr. Fulford in Duddeston Ward on Tuesday appears likely to lead to legal proceedings. Mr. Lawson Tait informs us that he has given Messrs. Rowlands and Co. instructions to bring an action for slander against Mr. Fulford. The latter gentleman informs us that up to last evening he had heard nothing of the matter; but that, assuming Mr. Lawson Tait’s intention to be correctly stated, he has instructed Messrs. Smith, Pinsent and Co. to inform Messrs. Rowlands that they are prepared to accept service on his behalf.
